synching mail across devices
I've been helping a friend with email on her iPad. She actually has two iPads, one for her and one for her husband. They also have a laptop each. They share one email address (BT Mail) between them, and access it on all four devices. The problem they are having is that although the inboxes etc appear to be synching properly, when an email is sent from one device they are unable to check the sent email on all four devices. So for example, if iPad #1 sends an email, if laptop #2 is the first to look in the sent mail on the email account they will see that sent email, but none of the other devices will ever download it - it's as though laptop #2 got there first!
I've checked all the settings in her BT Mail, as of course my first thought was that a copy wasn't being left on the server after a mail client is used, but unfortunately BT Mail no longer has the option to check/uncheck a box. I went through a long online-chat with BT tech support, at the end of which I was just told to contact Apple.
Does anyone out there have any ideas?
Many thanks.
